The Sauchie Poltergeist Case

Submitted by Olivia on Friday, July 17, 2015 7:16 PM
Poltergeist comes from the German words Poltern (to make noises) and Geist (ghost). Poltergeist activity invariably happens when adolescent children are around. This is explained by the ghost needing a high amount of energy to be able to move things, and the energy released by children going through hormonal changes provides the perfect source. – Read More…

We are all under a grand delusion. What is this delusion in which we are adrift ? We are the indweller of the man [i.e. human] -body but have become identified with the body so much so that we have become as if we were the body itself. This body has been given to you Read More…
The Fact/Opinion Distinction

Submitted by MasterMind on Wednesday, July 15, 2015 4:18 PM
When debating ethics and other controversial topics, one frequently hears the claim “That’s just your opinion.” It is a pernicious claim, devoid of clear meaning, and it should be consigned to the flames – or so I shall argue here. In calling something an opinion, one presumably wants to contrast it with something that is Read More…

The cities of today exhibit the tallest structures the world has ever seen. The density of urban environments and the desire to live and do business as close to the heart of the metropolis as is possible, provides developers with an obvious solution; build high.

Facing Life As An Empath

Submitted by Rev. Carrie Albright on Saturday, July 11, 2015 1:35 PM
I came across this is a very informative article about the empathic experience written by Na’avah Rich and believe it to be a good share… In August 2013 I began losing my mind!

165 Degrees Of Obsession

Submitted by LOGOS – Overseer on Saturday, July 11, 2015 1:05 AM
